We Need Your Help
We’re looking for parents who want to help grow the program, join the board, and support future success. We also need to renew some equipment—tents, helmets, jerseys—and to keep costs down, we’ll need to fundraise.

If you’re interested in helping or sponsoring (e.g., having your family or business name on a jersey or tent), please let us know!

If you have any questions or need help coordinating anything, feel free to reach out. Looking forward to another great week!

Best regards,
Scott Winn
